Possible Causes

Clogged lint and air ducts, Faulty dryer heater, Faulty dryer NTC sensor, Overloaded drum during drying

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the appliance and allow it to cool before accessing dryer components.

Step-by-step checks:

  • Load size: Reduce the load size for drying; washer-dryer combos typically dry only about half a full wash load.
  • Clean lint and ducts: Access and clean the dryer air ducts, fan, and any lint filters as described in dryer-related error entries.
  • Check heater and NTC: Test the dryer heater and NTC sensor for continuity and correct resistance. Replace if faulty.
  • Program selection: Ensure the correct drying program and dryness level are selected.
